United States Code

The United States Code is a consolidation and codification by subject matter of the general and permanent laws of the United States, which is prepared and published by the Office of the Law Revision Counsel (OLRC), an independent office within the US House of Representatives. The US Code is readily accessible from many web sites, but the OLRC’s own site has the most up to date online version of the current edition, together with all editions back to 1994 and various tables, tools, FAQs and guidance.
